Answer:

Favorable for price and unfavorable for usage.

Explanation:

Provided Information,

Standard Material = 2.2 pounds per unit

Standard cost = $2 per pound

Actual Quantity = 2.3 pounds per unit

Actual cost = $1.95 per pound

In Material Price variance we have = (Standard Price - Actual Price) [tex]\times[/tex] Actual Quantity

Since Standard Price $2 is more than actual price = $1.95 the variance is favorable.

In material quantity variance we have = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) [tex]\times[/tex] Standard Rate

Since actual quantity used = 2.3 pounds is more than standard 2.2 pounds the variance will be unfavorable

Therefore, Price Variance = Favorable, and Quantity Variance = Unfavorable.
